*Hey I can beat that, my satilite dish is 10' from my bedroom window,
little ******* sits on the back and drums away at it, any ideas on a fix
for that one?

Neighbour used to do road construction, built an 18' x 40' cuvert,



2 guys, 40,000 rivets, wasn't half as bad as a woodpecker on sat dish.

Whoever guessed it was a pileated woodpecker pulling my old stump apart

right on the money. I thought it was too much work for a bird but today
I
surprised the little (not so little) devil. He flew to another tree 50'
away to see if I was going to stay or leave - and then back to another
tree
20' on the other side of the stump. Went on the far side of that tree
and
peeked around to check me out.


That would have been me...


Pretty amazing what they'll do, ain't it?


Like you, wouldn't have thought it possible from them until I saw them
in action...


just be glad its not visiting your home every morning at 5 AM drilling
at your homes trim. my woodpecker had a schedule his stop here was
first thing in the morning


I had all the trim covered with aluminimum to silence him- Hide quoted text -

you sure he is pecking at dish, check the surrounding wood, he is
probably attacking wood and dish is noisey because of vibration.
